HMC Enhanced UI lacking client slot ID option for vSCSI adapters

The enhanced UI in the HMC is lacking the ability to choose a slot id for the client vSCSI adapter and forces the next available slot id on the client LPAR which may vary from LPAR to LPAR.

This is not the case with the classic UI where you have full control over the slot id mappings.

The classic UI is being sunset in version 8.8.7 of the HMC and this is major concern.

This RFE is related to the following RFE:
